In this episode of The Guilty Files Uncovered, Brian steps into dangerous territory — the West Memphis Three. But this isn't your typical Uncovered case. Here, the facts tell one story, but the deeper truth refuses to stay quiet.In 1993, three young boys — Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers — were found brutally murdered in a muddy ditch in West Memphis, Arkansas. It was a crime that stunned the town and shocked the nation. Within weeks, three teenagers — Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley — were arrested. They were different. They listened to heavy metal. They wore black. In the eyes of a panicked public, they fit the picture of evil.But what happens when fear outweighs evidence? When a confession is pulled from a vulnerable kid under hours of pressure? When juries are fed stories of Satanism instead of proof?Brian usually sticks to the cold, hard facts. But the West Memphis Three isn't just about facts — it's about the cracks in the system, the human cost of rushed judgment, and the haunting possibility that the real perpetrator, or perpetrators, are still out there.The three young men were eventually freed after spending nearly two decades behind bars — not exonerated by a clear confession or DNA match, but released through a complicated legal deal that left as many questions as answers.This case doesn't offer the neat closure we're used to. It challenges us to look past what we think we know and ask harder questions: Who failed? Who lied? And who's still getting away with it?Brian pulls back the curtain — no spin, no sugarcoating — to show how sometimes, getting to the truth means admitting how little we really know. The West Memphis Three. One of America's most haunting miscarriages of justice. Only on The Guilty Files.
ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
This episode explores the role of protection magic as a historically grounded response to war, oppression, and systemic violence across diverse cultural and temporal contexts.Drawing on peer-reviewed academic sources, it examines how magical practices—rituals, talismans, verbal formulae, and spirit invocations—have been used as forms of spiritual defence and political resistance. From Mesopotamian anti-witchcraft rites and Greco-Roman defensive curses to medieval Christian amulets, Renaissance grimoires, and the Magical Battle of Britain, the lecture situates protection magic within broader religious, social, and cosmological frameworks.Special attention is given to non-Western and postcolonial contexts, including the ritual technologies of Haitian Vodou during the revolution, Obeah in the British Caribbean, Yoruba warrior rites, and Andean protective ceremonies. The discussion also considers contemporary expressions of magical protection, including digital activist magic, Chaos Magic, and the esoteric disciplines of Damien Echols under carceral conditions.CONNECT & SUPPORT

#242: Die meisten Leute denken, im Gefängnis vergeht die Zeit langsam. Das stimmt nicht. Die Zeit vergeht überhaupt nicht. Zumindest nicht für jemanden, der die Hälfte seines Lebens im Todestrakt verbringt. Jemanden, der nicht mehr weiß, wie sich ein normales Leben anfühlt. Jemanden, wie der Gefangene mit der Nummer SK931. Wer er einmal in seinem früheren Leben war, spielt hier keine Rolle. Hier ist er nicht mehr als die Nummer, die man ihm bei seiner Inhaftierung 1994 gegeben hat. In dieser Folge gehen wir an einen Ort, den wir in vielen anderen Fällen nur kurz anreißen: Das Gefängnis. Linn und Leo schauen sich an, wie SK931 hier gelandet ist – und welcher Mann hinter dieser Nummer steckt. Nächste Woche veröffentlichen wir die zweite Folge, darin schauen wir uns die Taten, die SK931 vorgeworfen werden, ganz genau an.

Is anybody really safe? You see the storyline in every form of entertainment, "Arrested for a crime they didn't commit", but what if it wasn't just a storyline? For Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley it's the story of their lives. The West Memphis Three, as they have come to be known, were convicted of the murders of three 8-year-old boys who were killed on May 5th, 1993. Christopher Byers, Michael Moore, and Stevie Branch were found in a creek the next day, and one thing was on everyone's minds. Satanic Panic. Beliefs of the boys being sacrificed to Satan led investigators to accused Satanist, Damien Echols. The only problem was Damien wasn't a Satanist. That didn't stop the Arkansas justice system from sentencing him to death, Jason to Life imprisonment, and Jessie to Life+ for a crime they didn't commit.

On the evening of May 5, 1993, three eight-year-old boys—Stevie Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers—went missing in West Memphis, Arkansas. The next day, in a nearby wooded area, the boys were found brutally murdered, bound, and submerged in a drainage ditch. The horrific nature of the crime shocked the community, and police quickly arrested three local teenagers—Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley—based on a coerced false confession, no solid evidence, and Satanic panic.This is the story of three innocent children whose lives were stolen in an unspeakable act of violence. It's also the story of three wrongfully convicted teenagers who spent 18 years in prison, one of them on death row, for a crime they didn't commit—the victims of a flawed justice system and a community in the grip of fear.In today's episode, I'm honored to discuss a case that has gripped me for many years with the one man who has been involved since the beginning: Jessie Misskelley's original defense attorney, case advocate, and author of the recent book, A Harvest of Innocence: Judge Dan Stidham.This is our discussion about his book and the tragic case of the West Memphis Three.A Harvest of Innocence by Dan Stidham on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Harvest-Innocence-Untold-Memphis-Murder/dp/B0CMYZ2BT7 Judge Stidham's website: https://www.danstidham.com Email Judge Stidham with information about the case: harvestofinnocence@outlook.comTruth & Justice with Bob Ruff podcast: https://www.truthandjusticepod.com Paradise Lost documentary series: https://www.max.com/shows/paradise-lost/d509d74f-3c01-4367-9a42-a3aece5de4c9 The Forgotten West Memphis Three docuseries: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12092348/ West of Memphis documentary: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2130321/ Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/STLCpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com.

Send us a Text Message.Can a community's fear and paranoia lead to the wrongful conviction of innocent teenagers? Our latest episode grapples with this haunting question as we continue to dissect the infamous West Memphis Three case. We shine a spotlight on Damien Echols, whose troubled past and community suspicion made him a prime target during the satanic panic of the early '90s. The dubious actions of juvenile officer Jerry Driver, local teen LG Hollingsworth, and the fabricated tales spun by Vicki Hutchinson only deepened the shadows hanging over Damien, creating a maelstrom of accusation and fear. Adding to the chaos, we scrutinize Jesse Misskelly's grueling 12-hour police interview, of which only 45 minutes were recorded, casting significant doubt on the legitimacy of his confession.The injustice doesn't stop there; we unravel the wrongful conviction of 17-year-old Jesse Miskelly, whose coerced confession and intellectual disabilities were overlooked by a flawed legal system. Highlighting his attorney, Dan Stidham's recognition of Jesse's mental incapacity, we expose the procedural failures that led to his unjust imprisonment. We also question the prosecution's evidence, from the suspiciously retrieved knife to the questionable credentials of occult expert Dr. Griffiths and the unreliable jailhouse confession by Michael Carson. Tune in as we challenge the integrity of the evidence and the broader implications of this miscarriage of justice, offering a critical perspective on the trials and tribulations faced by the West Memphis Three.Sources:https://famous-trials.com/westmemphis/2287-homehttps://www.investigationdiscovery.com/crimefeed/murder/the-west-memphis-three-case-an-evolving-story-of-doubt-misinformationhttps://shakedowntitle.com/cases/west-memphis-3/https://law.jrank.org/pages/3599/West-Memphis-Three-Trials-1994-Appeals-Fail.html Jessie Miskelley, Jr. - First Taped Confession - 6/3/93 - Audio + Transcripthttps://www.facebook.com/watch/live/?ref=search&v=381949830464647https://www.oxygen.com/the-forgotten-west-memphis-three/true-crime-buzz/celebrities-advocated-release-west-memphis-threehttps://www.oxygen.com/the-forgotten-west-memphis-three/crime-news/victims-injuries-animal-predation-west-memphis-three-caseHarvest of Innocence by Dan StidhamParadise Lost TrilogyDevil's Knot by Mara LeverittLife After Death by Damien EcholsDark Spell by Jason Baldwin and Mara LeverittWest of Memphis Support the Show.Book a cruise with Murder and Mimosas:https://saltykissestravel.com/truecrimehalloweenhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1336304093519465https://twitter.com/Murder_Mimosashttps://www.instagram.com/murder.mimosas/murder.mimosas@gmail.comhttps://uppbeat.io/t/the-wayward-hearts/a-calm-hellfire License code: ZJZ99QK39IWFF0FB
Join us for a riveting episode of THE CIRCLE IS podCAST with Rachel True and Mat Auryn as we welcome special guest Damien Echols. Known for his harrowing time on death row under a false murder conviction due to the Satanic Panic, Damien shares how magick saved his life and his path of High Ceremonial Magick. We delve into his journey with magickal practice as a means of personal betterment and explore the relationship between magick and trauma. Mat and Damien bond over their admiration for Silver RavenWolf, discussing her impact on modern witchcraft and how she's been vilified for being popular. This leads to a discussion of how we and younger generations approach the work of the elders before us. The episode takes a lighter turn as Rachel, Mat, and Damien chat about the wisdom and influence of Marie Kondo and her approach to decluttering and organizing. We also emphasize the importance of the impact we have on the people in our lives, both mundane and magickal. Damien highlights the responsibility that comes with magickal practice and the right use of energy versus draining uses of energy. We discuss how everyday interactions and magickal workings intertwine, influencing our communities and the collective consciousness.

On May 5th, 1993, three young boys were murdered and mutilated in West Memphis, Arkansas. The gruesome crime scene led investigators to believe that the homicides were part of a satanic ritual. As the community searched for the devil among their fellow men, three teenage boys became targets: Jason Baldwin, Jessie Misskelley, and Damien Echols. The trio were subsequently arrested and convicted of the crimes, yet despite a false confession, no evidence linked them to the murders. Judge Dan Stidham was Jessie Misskelley's defense attorney and was the only lawyer to work the case from beginning to end. He reflects on his years-long battle for freedom and justice and discusses the impact the case continues to have on him to this day. Judge Stidham has been a full-time District Court Judge in Arkansas since 2008 and spent 20 years in private law practice. In his new book, A Harvest Of Innocence, Judge Stidham reveals chilling new information in the case of the West Memphis Three.

A Harvest of Innocence is Dan Stidham's story, until now untold, regarding his involvement in the West Memphis 3 murder case. He stepped into its current as a young lawyer, unaware of its strength and the immutable, unpredictable eddies that would forever change his life and his view of the law. He tells it now because it must be told. He spent most of the past 30 years viewed in widely disparate lights. In the beginning, to some he was a pariah, a man so bold as to represent a teenager accused of being a Satanic child killer. Much later, others began to respect his efforts in seeking justice for Jessie Misskelley. In the real world, it is much more complicated than that. He was nothing more than a lawyer committed to doing his job, what was required of him by his moral compass. As a reward for his efforts, he spent a good deal of the past 30 years being pummeled by those hellbent on stopping his quest for justice for the West Memphis 3, 3 young men who spent nearly two decades in prison for heinous crimes they simply did not commit. This is the true story of those events.

It's the second installment of our West Memphis Three series. In this part, we discuss how the police narrow in on Damien Echols for the murder of three young boys in West Memphis, Arkansas. But Damien couldn't have done it alone - his best friend, Jason Baldwin, must have been involved. Unfortunately, investigators are far from proving it. That is, until they discover a third perpetrator - someone that was there and could tell them exactly what happened in Robin Hood Hills that night, and the person that would complete the West Memphis Three: Jesse MissKelley.

In the Spring of 1993, three eight-year-old boys were murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas. And immediately, thanks to outlandish, paranoid Satanic Panic notions, investigative suspicion fell on a local eighteen-year-old, Damien Echols, ignorantly believed to be the leader of a local Satanic cult, and two of his teen friends, falsely believed to be his followers...
